Pellet heads!! What's up today?

All he has to do is pony-up the $350K (plus $28K tax).....pocket change with all the $$ he's making on his pellet stove parts side job.

 

I guess you skipped the 'rest and recuperation' portion of the program.

 

Chump change for J!!!

The company rep says that most of their customers will likely just "park these at a fancy restaurant in a cool hotel"

 

New carb and shutoff valve installed. Snow blower lives again.

 

from their advertising....

Besides the additional axle, the truck's twin-turbo V6 gets an engine upgrade in the form of modified turbo wastegates, a new intake, intercooler, exhaust and a retuned engine computer. The results are a V6 making 602 horsepower and 622 pound-feet of torque. Hennessey claims the engine can hustle the big truck to 60 mph in 4.9 seconds.

all that for 350K. wonder how long that gasser will last..... and why didn't they put in a Power Stroke at 450HP

 

They can’t keep the timing chains from stretching on the stock motor can’t imagine what 602 hp would do

 

That should be any day now.

 

Well, we had our 1 warm day today. It got up to 36. Heading down to 12 tonight. 3-6 inches of snow Friday changing to freezing rain which is with us all day Saturday. More snow Christmas. Wednesday AM temp of -9.



WTF? It's December.

 

Did a quick snowblower pass today to keep on top of the driveway for the holiday visitors Also did the LBT on the Fahrenheit furnace so to be ready for the long holiday stretch Did a lighting test on the Accentra and got 2:43 for lite off And now sitting back with a Alexander Keith smoothie

 

Wow, 8:30 PM and UPS just arrived with my priority overnight shipment I ordered Sunday. The delivery man hardly stopped when he got out of the tuck with our packages, left them with me and rushed back into his truck. I thanked him and wished him well. So glad that isn't me running around way into the evening with a truck that went out this morning.
I was driving home @ 4:45 PM and saw USPS well up the road making their way down. No idea if they ever made it here. I didn't walk back out to the road. Too dark and I don't walk so good. Fearful of not seeing ice and having a fall.

 

Good thing I quit my night job to rest the shoulder . Mother Nature is not going to let me rest and recuperate. However, at least now I have time to take care of the white stuff.

6" snow tomorrow, more on Saturday for me to clean up. I will miss Monday's storm. That isassuming my plane gets here for Sunday morning to take me somewhere - no bets on exactly where because I'm not sure Chicago will be open, or have my connection. But the stuff that falls Monday will be waiting for me when I get back - along with any additional storms that hit while I'm gone.

 

My regular mail hasn't been getting here until 7-7:30 pm.

 

I ordered a last minute gift on Tuesday at 630 am that was suppose to be here today by UPS 2nd Day Air. Current tracking shows it has not left Ontario California yet, but it till shows a delivery date of today .

It was a big discount which was why i decided to go ahead and order so close to Christmas. If it were Fedex or even USPS, it would probably have been here today.

As soon as I got the tracking and saw it was UPS I knew it likely would not be here for Christmas. Oh well, a day or two after Christmas present is still good in my book.

 

B jinxed us

 

I may be the only FHC member not to be stricken with STB's delivery woes. Ordered a pair of boots yesterday....lets see if they get here lol

 

Story of my life. People actively, and loudly, hope that I don't attend outdoor events as I will cause it to be cold & rainy (or worse). Which is one reason I don't go on many group rides and don't volunteer very much (yes, I have a perfect record for cold/rainy BBQ fundraisers in July and August).
